Cold front came in overnight and stayed all day. Late this afternoon heavy wet snow falling. Starting to look like winter is coming. Out to check on the horse loggers at Long Point missed them yesterday but found some of their trails hauling out the logs. They are doing some selective cutting of Jack Pine.
Ron, The horse loggers do sensitive area cutting in this case it is close to cottages and homes. You wouldn't want all those harvesters and skidders running around your place, neither would I. The horse loggers can go in between the younger tress with the mature logs they are pulling out therby not harming the stock that is left. Bill
First time in Gowganda was 1968 with the Dept. of Lands and Forests, doing a soil and vegetation study for the Wildlife Productivity Inventory. While here found the country amazing, the boreal forest the lakes at every turn and the air clean and fresh. It didn't take long back then to get the camera out and start recording some of the sights I'd seen. Since then with a few layoffs in photography its good to get right back at it. Putting your pictures on a blog like this forces you to go out and take more pics, which is the goal of this site.

Why would they use horses if that is what you mean ?
